This is a term from hockey. A cup-shot is a kick or hit to the groin area. In hocky there are plenty of equipment checks accomplished by hitting someone very hard in that piece of equipment.
A cup check is a hit to the groin so hard that if you are not wearing a cup (groin protector) you will be serious disabled.
